Sugar-Free Almond Berry Muffins

These sugar-free almond berry muffins are packed with protein, delicious for breakfast or a midday snack, and only set you back 130 calories!

I love a morning muffin loaded with the good stuff – juicy berries, fragrant vanilla and crisp almonds – but I’ll pass on the sky high calorie and sugar content that comes with the ones you get at coffeehouses! Did you know that a single Starbucks blueberry muffin clocks in 380 calories and 28 grams of sugar?? Same as eating 26 pieces of candy corn, just for a little perspective!

Instead, let’s make a batch of muffins bursting with flavor from a banana’s natural sugars and your favorite berries! These babies are packed with protein, delicious for breakfast or a midday snack, and only set you back 130 calories.

While these muffins aren’t about to satiate your sweet tooth, they will kick start your morning with a bit more energy. Use almond meal for even more protein!

These almond berry muffins are easy peasy to whip up, and easy to freeze for up to 1 month! Zap ‘em in the microwave and enjoy right away, or slather on some butter or cream cheese to “naughty” up these nice little muffins a bit!

And, if they’re not filling enough for your morning meal, dig into them alongside yogurt or a smoothie, your favorite fruit, turkey bacon, or a hardboiled egg. I love to boil eggs ahead of time, put them back in the carton (shell on), and refrigerate for up to 5 days.

Just made and tasted them and …. they were soo amazing! I actually used spelt instead of the rice flower and also substituted rice milk instead of the milk. They were still really moist, soft and fluffy.

These were very good!! i had all the ingredients (I went rice flour/almond meal) except the sliced almonds, so I switched out the vanilla extract for almond. And I used freshly picked blackberries. Very YUMMY! Thanks for sharing! :)
